Facts about George Washington Carver
We chose George Washington Carver as a special guest because he had an interesting
background with plants and was also named the plant Docter. He was able to find that
plants need nitrogen to grow but soon that nitrogen will run out, but some plants put
nitrogen in the ground because it has a special bacteria in their system which does that
work.
